This print transports us back to the Renaissance era in Venice with its intricate depiction of Libra - the scales of justice. Taken from a zodiacal woodcut by Gaius Julius Hyginus Poeticon Astronomicon in 1482 and beautifully preserved over time. The image showcases an exquisite blend of artistry and symbolism as it captures Libra's essence - a delicate balance between opposing forces. The finely detailed woodcut illustrates two pans suspended on either side of a central beam representing equilibrium and fairness. As we gaze upon this ancient artwork steeped in medieval mysticism and occult knowledge passed down through generations; we are reminded of humanity's enduring fascination with astrology and celestial bodies. The craftsmanship evident in every line and curve speaks volumes about the skillful Italian artisans who brought this piece to life centuries ago. It serves as a testament to their dedication to preserving knowledge through visual representations during that remarkable period known
